Learning ranking (or preference) functions has been a major issue in the machine learning community and has produced many applications in information retrieval. SVMs (Support Vect...
We describe and analyze a simple and effective iterative algorithm for solving the optimization problem cast by Support Vector Machines (SVM). Our method alternates between stocha...
Background: Predicting a protein’s structural class from its amino acid sequence is a fundamental problem in computational biology. Much recent work has focused on developing ne...
